I had a great time at the hostel, I wish I could've stayed a bit longer. Brendan is a great host, he means what he says and he says what he means. He doesn't really ask for a lot just good work and respect. The tasks for the hostel are pretty simple and depending on how many people are there to help you'll end up with a lot of free time. The atmosphere and the vibes were great, it was a very chill environment with very nice people. I would definitely recommend coming to the hostel and I'll definitely be back again.

A great volunteering experience, the athmosphere is relaxed and I liked that you work 3 longer shifts a week and then have 4 days off. The tasks are chill and easy, it's a great place to volunteer. Thank you!

My time volunteering at the hostel was one of a kind. I made some true friends and had lots of fun while interacting with all the interesting guests the hostel attracts. Couldn't have asked for a better first experience in Mexico. The tasks were easy to complete and you have lots of free time to explore Puerto and around or just take your time and chill. The top floor of the hostel was my favourite - plenty of space to do yoga, watch the sunset or nap in the hammocks :) 10/10 would recommend!

Una de las mejores experiencias que pude haber vivido. Estoy muy agradecida de esta experiencia y del lugar que elegí, hice amistades tanto con el staff como con huespedes. Lo recomiendo muchisimo, el jefe es una de las personas mas cool que he conocido y nada como tener a Luna todos los días, poder disfrutar de la playa que esta enfrente de tí y los atardeceres tan bonitos que te regala Puerto en el rooftop. 10/10 ❣️❣️
